    I was on "More class server" and there was class called "Ninja" - Knight with grapling hook. Does anyone know, how to make custom class and add it to server?

    Why I must learn c++? In KAG classis this was more easy.

    But now it is not that easy. You need to learn angelscript, and angelscript is really similiar to c++.
    You can also go on the irc channel kag.modding and ask for help.

    It's similiar to angelscript too, so yes. It's a blend between c++ and java.

    If you know C#, you have the same basics as Angelscript shares with C++. Those are obviously not the same beast but shares the same roots (as in, C).

    Adding more classes in KAG is a bit harder than you would except it to, but if you're watching and understanding respawning, tents and classes code it will be way easier. As Verra said the easiest for you would be to get in contact with people that had experience with this.

    Its nice that people link general c++ coding tutorials, but it should be pointed out that KAG uses AngelScript, not C++, not C#, etc. AngelScript is its own language, has less memory management for you to do than C++. You write mods in AS and they're downloaded to the client where appropriate and run there - things were easier in classic because you couldn't do that. Config files still exist, and you can still mix and match functionality like you could in the apparently "good old days" - but you can now write the functionality yourself as well.

    Sidenote: You can directly use "real" C++ if you use AsuMagics's serverside framework for it but those mods are not downloaded to the client.

    In terms of just using other people's mods (permissions allowing) you just add them to your server (copy to mods/ and add to the mod config) and connecting clients will download them.

    KTMC is not really a C++ framework though, but I'll probably opensource it. It also uses Angelscript to make mods.
